Neutron capture cross section and capture gamma-ray spectra of 138Ba in the keV-neutron energy region

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
The neutron capture cross sections and the capture γ-ray spectra of 138Ba were measured in the astrophysically important energy region. Measurements were made at neutron energies from 15 to 80 keV.

Interfacial Heat Transfer of Condensation Bubble with Consideration of Bubble Number Distribution in Subcooled Flow Boiling

open access: yesJournal of Thermal Science and Technology, 2013
For predicting the void fraction distribution in subcooled flow boiling, it is necessary to measure the interfacial heat transfer coefficient—which determines the amount of condensation rate of vapor bubble—with high accuracy.

Geometry Optimization of Dispersed UMo Fuel for Light Water Reactors

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
The Uranium/Molybdenum metallic fuel has been proposed as promising advanced fuel concept especially in the dispersed fuel geometry. The fuel is manufactured in the form of small fuel droplets (particles) placed in a fuel pin covered by a matrix.

Application of the Source-Jerk method using a neutron generator in a subcritical reactor

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2023
This paper describes the application of the Source-Jerk method using a neutron generator in the VR-1 reactor. The experiments were carried out on a shutdown reactor with subcriticality greater than -10 βeff.

Testing of the ABBN-RF multigroup data library in photon transport calculations

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Gamma radiation is produced via both of nuclear fuel and shield materials. Photon interaction is known with appropriate accuracy, but secondary gamma ray production known much less. The purpose of this work is studying secondary gamma ray production data

Small Modular Nuclear Reactors

open access: yes, 2020
Small modular reactors (SMRs) encompass a large number of technologies at different stages of development. A key challenge for SMR stakeholders is the evaluation of SMR competitiveness with respect to large reactors (LRs). SMRs are usually considered less competitive than LRs because of a misguided application of the economy of scale principle. However,

Neutron capture cross section and capture gamma-ray spectra of 89Y

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
The neutron capture cross section of 89Y was measured by the time-of-flight method in an energy range from 15 to 100 keV. A pulse-height weighting technique was applied to derive the capture yield.

A simple model of reactor cores for reactor neutrino flux calculations for the KamLAND experiment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
KamLAND is a reactor neutrino oscillation experiment with a very long baseline. This experiment successfully measured oscillation phenomena of reactor antineutrinos coming mainly from 53 reactors in Japan. In order to extract the results, it is necessary

Constraints on Hidden Photons Produced in Nuclear Reactors. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2018
New light vector particles-hidden photons-are present in many extensions of the standard model of particle physics. They can be produced in nuclear reactors and registered by neutrino detectors.
